Thank you for accepting our invitation to attend the Water for Food Global Conference on behalf of Dr. Alabdulqader. Can you please let me know who will be attending the conference and who will be speaking during the session, "Global Drought Management and Resilience: Moving Beyond UNCCD COP16" on April 29th 10:30-noon?  Will Dr. Rashad Alghamdi or Dr. Alabdulqader be speaking? That will help me plan next steps for registration, the presentation requirements, and will help me coordinate with the other speakers in the session.
